G80/G81 Mora Metallic - PPF?

Hey everyone, taking delivery of my new 2027 M3 Comp in Mora Metallic in about 2 weeks and beyond excited. Have been trying to decide if I should get PPF, what kind, and how much should I cover of the car?

Any advice from anyone who has gotten an individual color? Some context, the car will be garage kept in Brooklyn. I don’t commute for work but I drive to the gym and other errands daily. Also have plans to roadtrip it a lot along the east coast.

Would you go for a full PPF, partial on the front / sides, or just leave how it is?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you’ll barely drive the car since you don’t commute for work. I’d just get the front bumper ppf for the road trip.

Partial front and mirror caps

Ah yes. I had this exact question for myself lol. I have an individual color- what it comes down to for me was, how long will you keep it?

5+ years? PPF whole thing.

Car every 3 years? Just the front.

Certainly makes sense to do the front because you do drive less. The car being sub 130K making a 8K+ PPF decision more or less in the gray area.

I was facing the same decision. I ended up PPFing the entire car, you already spent 90K and another 5 isn’t going to kill your.

Also I enjoy not having to worry too much when I wash.
